Mini-Profile
I am a 50+ teacher who works as a librarian, while acting as the mentoring coordinator to match students and teachers, character education representative for our building and often, new -teacher- to- the- building mentor. I am on the hospitality committee for most schoolwide functions.
I mentor a goup of about 25 students a year. They are wonderful and I enjoy seeing the growth that they attain.
I love to write and express my feelings in a way that will attract the reader and open them to my influence. I am certainly a stable woman who believes in God and his blessings on us. Patriotism is another hallmark: we are blessed.
I live in the heart of God’s country, on the family farm that my brothers and nephews operate. I feel blessed to be on a farm that has seen seven generations of family farmers. The wild life can be a bit disconcerting (deer darting here and there, or a bandit racoon scurrying across the road, at night ), but is peaceful and a blessing to all of us here.
